A laboratory manual gave precise instructions for carrying out the reaction described by the chemical equation, C2H6O + O2 C2H4O

2 + H2O. It stated that if you bubble oxygen gas through a solution containing the reactant for 24 hours then the yield of C2H4O2 would be 7.50% of the theoretical amount. If you desire to produce 700. grams of the C2H4O2 in a single batch, how many kg of C2H6O should you begin with?

C2H6O + O2 ---> C2H4O2 + H2O

using the molar masses:-
24+ 6 + 16 g of C2H6O  produces 24 + 4 + 32 g C2H4O2    (theoretical)
 46 g produces 60g 

60 g C2H4O2 is produced from 46g C2H6O
1g      .     .................................46/60 g 
 700g     .................................    (46/60) * 700  Theoretically

But as the yield is only 7.5% 

the required amount is    ((46/60) * 700 ) / 0.075 =  7155.56 g 

=  7.156 kg to nearest gram.  Answer

What is the stoichiometric ratio between BaCl2 and NaCl
bixtya [17]
<span>BaCl2+Na2SO4---->BaSO4+2NaCl There is 1.0g of BaCl2 and 1.0g of Na2SO4, which is the limiting reagent? "First convert grams into moles" 1.0g BaCl2 * (1 mol BaCl2 / 208.2g BaCl2) = 4.8 x 10^-3 mol BaCl2 1.0g Na2SO4 * (1 mol Na2SO4 / 142.04g Na2SO4) = 7.0 x 10^-3 mol Na2SO4 (7.0 x 10^-3 mol Na2SO4 / 4.8 x 10^-3 mol BaCl2 ) = 1.5 mol Na2SO4 / mol BaCl2 "From this ratio compare it to the equation, BaCl2+Na2SO4---->BaSO4+2NaCl" The equation shows that for every mol of BaCl2 requires 1 mol of Na2SO4. But we found that there is 1.5 mol of Na2SO4 per mol of BaCl2. Therefore, BaCl2 is the limiting reagent.</span>

Sophie [7]
The middle carbon is 4-degree since it is attached to 4 carbons. All other carbons are 1-degree since they are attached to only 1 carbon. 

Hydrogens attached with 1-degree carbon are all same. Hydrogen are often refereed to as protons. No carbon is attached to 4-degree carbon. So all hydrogens in this structure are same.

This structure is called  NeoPentane

A substance is 89.2% carbon by mass. how much of the substance would be needed to recover 34.6 mol of pure carbon?
kari74 [83]
1 mole of carbon contains 12 g
Thus, 34.6 moles will contain; 34.6 × 12 = 415.2 g
If a substance contains 89.2 % carbon, 
then, (415.2/89.2) ×100 =  465.47 g of the substance will be required to yield 34.6 moles of carbon.

22. How many atoms are there in 344.75 g of gold nugget? a. 1.05 x 10 to the power of 24 atoms b. 1.05 x 10 to the power of 23 a
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

1.053×10²⁴ atoms of gold

Explanation:

Hello,

Gold nugget are usually the natural occurring gold and they contain 85% - 90% weight of pure gold.

In this question, we're required to find the number of atoms in 344.75g of a gold nugget.

We can use mole concept relationship between Avogadro's number and molar mass.

1 mole = molar mass

Molar mass of gold = 197 g/mol

1 mole = Avogadro's number = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

Number of mole = mass / molar mass

Mass = number of mole × molar mass

Mass = 1 × 197

Mass = 197g

197g is present in 6.022×10²³ atoms

344.75g will contain x atoms

x = (344.75 × 6.022×10²³) / 197

X = 1.053×10²⁴ atoms

Therefore 344.75g of gold nugget will contain 1.053×10²⁴ atoms of gold
